[QUOTE="topdecktiger, post: 129549718, member: 1459051"] Actually, no, you can't imagine that. The NCAA's toughest sanctions have involved improper benefits, i.e. players getting paid. If you look back at how the NCAA has handed out punishments previously, the UNC case is sort of uncharted waters. Will fake classes fall into the same category as paying players? Nobody really knows at this point. Aside from that, you have the facts all mixed up. First off, UNC has been sanctioned. The football team got a bowl ban and reduced scholarships in 2012. The AFAM scandal was discovered as an offshoot of that. The state of North Carolina did its own investigation, and the NCAA followed suit. The NCAA finished the investigation and sent UNC a Notice of Allegations last fall (which is what starts the formal disciplinary procedure). They were supposed to have their hearing at the beginning of March, which is normal procedure. The hearing was delayed because UNC self-reported additional violations, which is again normal procedure. One thing I will agree with is that UNC self-reported so that the investigation would continue until after the basketball tournament. It was a calculated move by UNC, but that's how the NCAA rules are set up. The NCAA has to investigate the additional charges before the disciplinary hearing can commence. See, that's the thing you don't get. The NCAA can't do the investigation piecemeal like you want, because the NCAA bylaws on investigations don't allow for that. They have to conduct it as one entire investigation. If the NCAA breaks its own bylaws in the investigation, then you just end up with another situation like Miami where the school gets away with everything. [/QUOTE]
